Bryj Appoints James Colgan as CEO to Drive AI-Powered Mobile Marketing Innovation
Bryj has officially named James Colgan the new Chief Executive Officer, heralding a new chapter in the firm’s strategy to enhance its AI-powered mobile marketing platform. With a rich background that includes leadership roles at Microsoft Outlook Mobile, Slack, and Spendesk, Colgan is set to accelerate Bryj’s mission of providing an all-inclusive solution for marketers aimed at building and scaling mobile applications efficiently.
As mobile applications emerge as vital revenue generators for brands, Bryj positions itself at the forefront of this movement by empowering marketing teams—rather than relying solely on engineers—to create high-performing apps in mere weeks. This is made possible with Bryj’s unified platform that integrates app development, engagement, and customer acquisition through advanced AI technology.
"Marketing teams face significant pressure to drive mobile growth, yet often find themselves hampered by a patchwork of tools," Colgan stated. "Mobile is fast becoming the core revenue channel for consumer brands, and AI is revolutionizing the app creation process. Bryj seamlessly merges these elements, and I’m excited to lead our team into this new era of mobile marketing."
Colgan’s extensive experience includes successfully launching the Outlook Mobile app, which grew to nearly 60 million active users in just two years, establishing it as a leader in the enterprise email sector. His previous roles also include significant contributions at Slack and assisting Spendesk in reaching unicorn status. Industry experts believe Colgan’s expertise in scaling mobile products aligns perfectly with Bryj’s innovative vision.
“James has a proven track record of building successful mobile products,” noted Mark Gorenberg, Managing Director of Zetta Venture Partners. "Bryj is addressing the challenges of mobile growth, facilitating the process for brands to develop outstanding apps while leveraging AI to drive user engagement."
Currently, Bryj is expanding its presence among notable consumer and retail brands, partnering with companies such as Ethan Allen and Allegis to enhance their mobile experiences. As the company gears up for notable advancements in early 2026, it is focused on further integrating mobile app development, engagement, and AI-driven acquisition into a cohesive, marketer-friendly workflow.
